According to The Daily Beast, Lynton appeared on CNN to discuss his side of the major story, and stated that Sony had "no alternative" to pulling the film after theater chains — including AMC and Regal — refused to screen the film in light of the terrorist threats against it. However, he added that Sony has "not caved, we have not given in, we have persevered, we will not back down...[Sony] would still like the public to see [The Interview]. Absolutely."

As for how that could possibly happen, Lynton didn't say — but he did tell CNN anchor Fareed Zakaria that an online streaming arrangement may be tough because "not one" video-on-demand distributor has approached them about the project. Lynton's full comments, from The Verge:

There are a number of options open to us, and we have considered those and are considering those. As it stands right now, while there have been a number of suggestions... there has not been one major VOD distributor [or] one major e-commerce site that has stepped forward and said they're willing to distribute this movie for us... Again we don't have that direct interface with the American public.

In other words, the future of The Interview is basically unknown as of now — and it's not clear if this movie will ever see the light of day.
